Re: When do you send out Save the Dates?

Probably about 6 mos if not a bit less in advance. Our wedding is in July, and some family have them now, some will get them at the beginning of January. (we're trying to get through the Christmas cruddola first.) Invites for us, will go out in March w/ an RSVP due 1st of June.

We sent ours out at like 8 months out but our date is June 23, so it will run alot of people into the holidays. Also we knew it would give most of our family and friends a better chance of saving money, since they are from all over the world. It also served us with a little bit of a headcount so that we knew what we needed to start saving.It really all depends most timelines will say between 6-8 months. Invitations are like 3-4 months but mine are going out mid January.

My wedding is September 10 as well and I send my save the date cards. However, I have a lot of out of town people so I needed to. I will send invitation about 5-6 months out. You must also be getting married on 09/10/11?
